OK, followed the instructions and it all went smoothly. The most time consuming part by far was taking a snapshot beforehand as a safety precaution (on top of normal backups and such).

`docker info` now reports:

> Server Version: 18.06.0-ce  
> Storage Driver: aufs

I include the aufs since the update `Get Docker` page says:

> For Ubuntu 16.04 and higher, the Linux kernel includes support for OverlayFS, and Docker CE uses the `overlay2` storage driver by default. If you need to use `aufs` instead, you need to configure it manually. See [aufs](https://docs.docker.com/engine/userguide/storagedriver/aufs-driver/)

But it seems that the update did not transition to using overlay instead of aufs.

Do I need to do something to make that happen as well, or just ignore it and continue with aufs?

Thanks!
